1) Remote in to the SharePoint Central Admin server:

• This step is to be done in one SharePoint server only and it copies App Fabric libraries to all SharePoint servers and registers them to be used by Aurea Social caching infrastructure.

2) If you are running on a CU of AppFabric other than CU 7 you need to copy the following dll files from the AppFabric install directory (typically C:\Program Files\AppFabric 1.1 for Windows Server) to the location where you extracted the AppFabricSitrion.zip, in a folder call App Fabric Classes, replacing the .dlls in that folder.

• Microsoft.ApplicationServer.Caching.Client.dll
• Microsoft.ApplicationServer.Caching.Core.dll
• Microsoft.WindowsFabric.Common.dll
• Microsoft.WindowsFabric.Data.Common.dll

3) Manually copy the App Fabric Classes folder to each server Sharepoint server. Then, on each server, run as Administrator a cmd prompt, change directory to where you copied the App Fabric classes folder and use gacutil.exe to place each .dll in the gacac (there are example in GACUTILExamples.txt that are untouched by Word auto formatting):

• gacutil.exe -i“c:\locationtofolerhere\App Fabric Classes\Microsoft.ApplicationServer.Caching.Client.dll”
• gacutil.exe -i “c:\locationtofolerhere\App Fabric Classes\Microsoft.ApplicationServer.Caching.Core.dll”
• gacutil.exe -i “c:\locationtofolerhere\App Fabric Classes\Microsoft.WindowsFabric.Common.dll”
• gacutil.exe -i “c:\locationtofolerhere\App Fabric Classes\Microsoft.WindowsFabric.Data.Common.dll”

4) Ensure that on each Sharepoint server the .dlls listed in Sitrion\app fabric classes are added to the gac (C:\windows\assembly) on each SharePoint serverConfigure Sitrion to Use AppFabric cache
